AccessibilityWindowInfo

class AccessibilityWindowInfo : Parcelable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityWindowInfo

This class represents a state snapshot of a window for accessibility purposes. The screen content contains one or more windows where some windows can be descendants of other windows, which is the windows are hierarchically ordered. Note that there is no root window. Hence, the screen content can be seen as a collection of window trees.

Constants

TYPE_ACCESSIBILITY_OVERLAY

Added in API level 22
static val TYPE_ACCESSIBILITY_OVERLAY: Int

Window type: Windows that are overlaid only by an for interception of user interactions without changing the windows an accessibility service can introspect. In particular, an accessibility service can introspect only windows that a sighted user can interact with which they can touch these windows or can type into these windows. For example, if there is a full screen accessibility overlay that is touchable, the windows below it will be introspectable by an accessibility service regardless they are covered by a touchable window.

Public constructors

AccessibilityWindowInfo

Added in API level 21
AccessibilityWindowInfo()

Creates a new AccessibilityWindowInfo.

AccessibilityWindowInfo

Added in API level 21
AccessibilityWindowInfo(info: AccessibilityWindowInfo)

Copy constructor. Creates a new AccessibilityWindowInfo, and this new instance is initialized from given info.

Parameters
info AccessibilityWindowInfo: The other info. This value cannot be null.

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 21
fun describeContents(): Int
Return
Int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

equals

Added in API level 21
fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

  • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
  • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
  • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
obj This value may be null.
Return
Boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.
